Earworms
« on: July 29, 2009, 01:52:48 pm »
Is this even a worthy topic? I don't know, but I have the first bars of Verdi's Dies Irae on repeat and it is chewing at the shreds of concentration my hangovered self was trying to muster in order to be productive today. It's very disruptive. Puts one in the mind for riding hosss and spearing orcs, not proofreading catalogues of truck parts. Shouldn't have listened to it on my way to work. FUCKER.

Jesus no - NO!

I thought I wouldn't know your earworms - I thought I would be safe. What's worse than an earworm? Earworms fighting for dominance.

It is =(

It's a booby trap of a thread. You open it and "oh god no aaaa" ensues.

Ash: seconded on keyboard cat song.

But the very worst, the song that pops into my head whenever I walk someplace, and I will never know why:
"amber" by 311.
Just the bassline. Over and over.

I loved that song when I was in the 5th grade.

What is weid about the 311 thing is that the last time I had heard it before it became a permanent earworm was in 8th or 9th grade.
